Hi Everyone,

My mum has had pain in her abdomen for several months, anyways she thought she had a UTI so did a urine test. Came back with too much protein in urine. Did another one same thing. GP referred for a kidney scan which we did Tuesday. Yesterday we got the results and she has a mass on her left kidney. GP suspects renal carcinoma and she's been placed on the NHS Cancer Fastrack. We are just waiting on a call from the hospital. I guess I'm posting on here as me and my mum are like best friends we see eachother everyday. We both don't have partners and rely on eachother. It's all come as so much as a shock, she's in work today and I'm just sitting here crying and so upset as it's all a bit overwhelming. But I know I have to be strong for her so I also feel selfish and guilty for being so upset as it's not me going through it. Anyways not sure why I posted but just feel life life and gone crazy in 24 hours and it's a bit daunting.
